Well the Miramichi was on the rise and cooling off until yesterday and it's now lost all that ground. A couple of fish seen moving early morning and that was it.
Reports still coming in of lots of salmon stacking in the cold water pools. The rangers & wardens are going to be kept busy as reports of netting and jigging are coming in from Miramichi, Cains & Dungarvon - some of this poaching has been going on openly infront of legal fishermen and of course some of the offenders feel it's an entitlement. A couple of poachers apprehended down river yesterday should be making their way into the courts in the months to come.
Eagles & hawks are having a field day along the short line feeding on dead fish. Watched an eagle take a grilse out of the rapids this afternoon. Crows moved right in for the feed and a second eagle dropped by to see if it could share. Night hawks put on a show last night with their acrobatics. Had two land at our feet, first time I have ever seen them on the ground, tame as morning doves.
One fish was raised today but if you are going fishing I'd recommend taking some other form of entertainment with you and it's very hot out there.
